Moth: Mouse Over Target Hover

[tronned]

Moth
http://war.curse.com/downloads/war-addons/details/moth.aspx

Description
Moth is a mouse over target hover window (loosely translated, a tooltip) that replaces Warhammer's default Mouse Over Target window.

About
Moth can display Name, Level, Con, Tier, CareerName, CareerIcon, and Health for friendly and enemy player characters. In addition, Moth can display Quest Tracking, NPCIcon, NPCTitle for NPCs. Player+Enemy Names and Career Names are colored-per-career.

Configuration
Currently, Moth is a WYSIWYG AddOn. It (should) just simply work out of the box. A GUI configuration is planned for a future release, when I get around to creating a better data structure for SavedVariables.

In the interim, the profile can be manually changed in MothSettings.lua, and attributes for a specific profile can be changed in MothProfiles.lua. The "tronned" profile is what I use day-to-day in-game.

Current Version
1.091

Patch Version Supported
1.2

Dependencies
None

I <3 Moth :D

One of very few must-have addons. Mythic should pay you for doing their (GUI designer's) job.

One of my favorite addons! :D

hello tronned,

first thanks for this addon :-) I've got 2 questions/suggestions:

1) Is it possible to get a little delay/fade before the mothframe disappears? It's sometimes hard to get the info when you mouseover, the target is moving and the frame disappears instantly.
2) I would also love to see the Guildname :P

regards
Yakar

Fading is/was planned, but honestly, I have been a little lazy on coding Moth and it needs a little rewrite love.

As for guild name, that information is not provided by the API for both friendly and enemy players.

[Yakar]

Thank you for the reply. Guildinfo would really be nice - hopefully this will be implemented in the API soon :(

Moth doesn't quite work properly with the player statues in cities. The tooltip cuts off the player names and classes and doesn't show the description (i.e. 'The number 1 renown holder for the week'). It also throws a warning in the debug log whenever you mouse over a statue stating that 'Text is cutoff in Label MothCell3Text'.

[tronned]

That bug occurred in closed and open beta, iirc. :( I believe it is because they shove the name + description all together in one label with \r\n.

I will check it out when I get a chance, thanks for the heads up. ^_^

From what I can tell, that's exactly what's happening. Doing a dump of TargetInfo while mousing over one of the statues shows the mouseovertarget.name field as containing all of the info (player name, career name and description). Hope it's an easy fix!
